RoofRepair.co operates only through fully licensed contractors in every state we serve. Verify our license in your state, understand the requirements, and protect yourself from unlicensed operators.
A licensed roofing contractor has passed state examinations, carries required insurance, and can be held accountable through the state licensing board. An unlicensed contractor can disappear after a job, leaving you with no legal recourse and potential code violations on your property.
Unlicensed roof work also creates problems with insurance claims, property sales, and future permits. In states that require permits, only licensed contractors can legally pull them — which means uninspected work with no municipal oversight.
Every RoofRepair.co contractor is fully licensed in their operating state, carries General Liability insurance of at least $1 million, and maintains Workers Compensation coverage for all employees on your property.
Request the specific license number for your state and verify it at the state licensing board website before any work begins.
Require a current COI showing both General Liability and Workers Compensation coverage, listing your address as the project site.
Ask whether a permit is required for your project and get written confirmation that the contractor will pull it before work starts.
Request 3 verifiable local references from jobs completed in your area within the past 18 months — not a testimonial page.
Licensing requirements vary significantly by state. Some require full state contractor licenses; others have no state requirement. Know what applies in your state.
Every state with a licensing requirement has an online lookup. Search the contractor's business name or license number. Look for active/good-standing status and no disciplinary actions.
Ask the contractor to have their insurance company email the Certificate of Insurance directly to you — not the contractor. The COI should list your address as a project location.
Search the business on BBB for accreditation status and complaint history. Look for pattern complaints about warranty follow-through or post-job disputes — more revealing than star ratings.
We provide our state license number, insurance COI, and BBB documentation to every customer before any work begins.
